Salad Days.
🌿
After much, much procrastination,
I’m finally posting an introduction to my first essay collection.
I somehow managed to post this before its 2nd anniversary… Haha…

🪐 About the Author, Eotbi
A 6-year veteran office worker, currently employed as a commerce marketer. I dream of retirement whenever I get a chance, but I’m holding on, reminding myself of the preciousness of my paycheck.
